Instead of supplying the defense budget with needed money to fund an American army that would have a chance of beating the Salvation Army in a war, the Obama administration is giving $1 billion to Ukraine. Meanwhile, Kerry, along with all of his hair, is in Kiev and Putin refuses to back down.
While the Russian forces have gathered in Kiev, wearing uniforms without insignias but smelling of borscht, which gives them away, the people of Kiev are trying to drum up support for the revolution, and nary a rock star, nor even a Sean Penn look alike has spoken out for the downtrodden Ukrainians. These people have died in the streets of the city and it appears they will have died for naught.
The Ukrainian naval ships, all two of them, have been blockaded by the Russians. But thankfully, both sides have pretty much kept their cool and nobody thus far has been hurt. One screw up, one crazy shot fired, and all hell could break loose--it wouldn't take much.
On March 1st, president Obama spoke with Putin for 90 minutes. It must have been like a teenager trying to impress a girl, with Obama doing the attempt at impressing. Obama is pictured on the phone in his "mom jeans," and Putin, not in a photo, is shirtless, I suppose. This conversation has obviously done as much good for Obama's plans as Obamacare has done for millions of Americans. When you want to show strength, which I doubt Obama wants to do, you make the conversation brief, to the point, and clear. You speak like you mean it, and hopefully you have a history from other situations that backs you up--unfortunately, Obama has none.
It's obvious that Obama is clueless about foreign policy and strategies. He probably thought the G8 Summit was a mountain where he could get vegetable juice. But it's easy for me to sit here and criticize--the next steps we must take are not as obvious as Obama's incompetence.
